Barcelona is the perfect place to enjoy summer. It’s a place that has it all, sun, beach, culture, gastronomy, tradition, monuments, party… Did we mention sun and beach?
The weather in Barcelona during the summer is amazing. The city has a subtropical-Mediterranean climate with hot summers and temperatures around 27-28°C (81-82°F)
Therefore, you can enjoy the different beaches along the city. For those who like sand and sea, the beach is just a short walk from the Hotel Barcelona Princess.
Before or after a sunny day at the beach, you can take a swim in the pools of our Princess Hotels & Resorts in Barcelona. Hotel Negresco Princess has a pool on its terrace located on the seventh floor with spectacular views of Barcelona.
The Hotel Barcelona Princess is a hotel in Barcelona with two outdoor pools. One pool on the 3rd floor next to The Gym Bar and an infinity pool overlooking the Mediterranean Sea on the 23rd floor.
In addition to paella, gazpacho, and tapas, try the Catalan gastronomy which is delicious. Try the “Pa amb tomàquet” (bread with tomato), the patatas bravas or something refreshing like escalivada and empedrat that are perfect for summer.
Barcelona is also internationally known for Gaudí. You can visit the Sagrada Familia, Casa Milà or La Pedrera, Park Güell, Casa Batlló or Palau Güell. But you can also see other jewels of Catalan modernism such as Casa Lleó Morera, Casa Mulleras, Casa Bonet, Casa Amatller, Palau de la Música, etc.
Regarding Barcelona’s traditions, a “must” is to watch Sardana dance (a type of circle dance) and see Castells (human towers).
As night falls, if you’re looking for party and nightlife, you can find music, bars, nightclubs in all neighborhoods of Barcelona such as in the Gothic Quarter and El Raval.
